I perform poetry at live events, schools, and at churches or spiritual gatherings. My poems are written and performed to fit any occasion. I am available for any function that needs poetry and I can play music as well to move the crowd or create an entertaining and energetic environment.
I can perform with any style of music behind me if that is what you have in mind. I am good to go for poetry events, readings, or even writing a unique or special poem for your dog, your cat, your mother, or your best friend. I also teach the craft of writing and performing poetry. I can teach children, young adults, and adults.
